Adding @MSantos and @Jgiannelos for visibility.

I ran into a few glitches so far, and I'll proceed cautiously rather than rushing the deployment out.

• Instructions at https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Maps/Services_deployment are still based on the kartotherian-package repo process, which is completely deprecated to my knowledge.
• Unclear whether there should be an npm release when we deploy? It seems this is no longer coupled to the deployment, which is nice. We could switch to a more intentional strategy of only releasing to npm when the package is very stable, like is done with MediaWiki-core releases.
• WMDE devs don't have permissions to create a branch on the kartotherian-deploy repo. I'm assuming that a branch is the right way to test on beta, so that we don't accidentally deploy anything to production (e.g. if a hotfix is required for an unrelated issue).

Change 803475 had a related patch set uploaded (by Awight; author: Awight):

[maps/kartotherian/deploy@master] New kartotherian source; enable geopoint service

Change 803475 merged by jenkins-bot:

[maps/kartotherian/deploy@master] New kartotherian source; enable geopoint service on beta

https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/803475

The code is deployed, but we can't demonstrate geopoints yet due to lacking the geoshapes database. I'll create a subtask for this work.

Now there are some remaining snapshot errors, see the missing maps on https://en.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org/wiki/User:Adamw/sandbox

I also realized that I failed to update the node_modules in the deploy repo.

Looks like tegola.wmflabs.org was being provided by the maps-experiments cluster, and we have to reconstruct it on beta. @MSantos can I leave that on the WMF backlog?

Note: enabling geopoints includes some configuration (point to beta wikidata) and data entry (make sure we have some items in beta wikidata with coordinates, document these).
